Is The Church of Christ The New Israel?

Yes.

Paul is dealing with the false doctrine of the Judaizing teachers who were compelling Gentile Christians to submit to the law of Moses and physical circumcision. Paul writes to combat it with the truth that the new Israel is, in fact, the church of Christ in Galatians 6:16: "And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God."

Peter would later write that we also are the new Israel in 1 Peter 2:9,10: "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy."

Quite impressed by the message I saw on TV. I rarely watch this type of programming and generally tune out very quickly. The reason is that I find most of what I see mired in either a constant plea for money or in what I consider to be a mistaken interpretation of Bible truth. What I saw this evening was different from the norm and much more in line with my own beliefs. Thank you. Please continue in this vein. God bless you.

This is a serious Bible only presentation that can be use to convert denominational people to truth. Use it!

We have a man who has been through much and has been seeking Him for years. Went to a bunch of non-denominationals until he found you on YouTube. He was so frustrated with the state of the religious world that he was actually making preparations to move himself and his wife there to assemble. Your preaching convicted him and he began coming here regularly seeking truth and love. He was immersed 2 weeks ago and we are helping equip him for the battle!

Your Website, site, and page is so helpful, touching, meaningful, educative and so powerful. Thanks many a time for bringing the Word to the lost souls.

"One of my main sources of study is the World Video Bible School website and THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST youtube channel, which I think is of your knowledge. Through them I have found out I was at the wrong church, under a false doctrine

My husband and I listened to [your] sermon about Calvinism [for] a debate we are having on chrisitianforums.net and found the information very helpful and enlightening. Thank you."Christine & Ronald Rowell
